Perhaps the definition of the "Fast" in "fast food" is a wide misconception. Just maybe The "fast" in "fast food" refers not to the time taken to prepare the food, but the time it takes to exit your body when you have consumed said food. Or maybe it refers to the time taken to eat it. Who knows?

It's fast food in most parts of the world; well at least it's usually fast; but in the land of "no problem" where there is no rushing for anything but a traffic light and the term "Jamaican service" is an oxymoron, well you know the rest. The fact is maybe we should all take that wait time to reconsider the crap we're eating that's being passed onto us as food. Who am I kidding? I don't want to make my own lunch and that's why I put up with the lines and the wait.
